We’re thrilled to premiere Honor of the Knights, the most radical and important Spanish film in many years. “Albert Serra debuts with this reinterpretation of the delusional adventures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, replacing monstrous windmills and regal farm girls with quiet ruminations on the lyricism of nature and the existence of God. Taking an earthbound perspective on Quixote’s flights of fancy, the film discovers a grounded humanity and serene beauty where past interpretations have found only futility and disillusionment. Captivating landscapes offset by the iconic duo’s wry conversations further transpose the knight-errant’s aimless wanderlust into an unforgettable cinematic and existential experience.” (LA Film Festival). In Catalan with English subtitles.
